Intel's SVT-AV1 video encoder was faster on Linux over Windows.

Though in the case of H.264 video encoding with x264, the performance was similar between operating systems.

The GraphicsMagick OpenMP-threaded image editing continues to favor Linux for the best performance.

With the Ryzen 9 3900X, the 7-Zip performance is close between Windows and Linux unlike Ubuntu's much more significant wins with Zen/Zen+ processors.

In the Stockfish and asmFish chess benchmarks, the results were close.
